Window Shoppin' 6/15/11

Last weekend I had my first shopping trip in months. Well, actually since my birthday in March. I went with the sole purpose to purchase Toms shoes.

That didn't happen. I saw them, I tried them, I couldn't commit. I just couldn't.


Mostly because I was distracted by a purse the second I walked into the store. An aqua purse, with zippers ruffled down the front and pockets for all of my what-nots. And just like that I was walking out of the shoe store with a purse instead of Toms. It was all a blur. So now my purse woes are momentarily solved. (That is if this new purse holds its own and nothing horrible happens to it.) I also purchased this top from Charlotte Russe too. I like it! So yeah, the Tom's budget was spent and now I'm wondering if I'll purchase them next month before we leave on vacation.

Along with that one shirt I saw at Charlotte Russe. And that other one I saw at American Eagle. And that other shirt at Hollister. Why is it when you go shopping for one specific thing, you find a ton of stuff you want but can't buy? And when you go shopping for the sake of shopping you never find anything? It's unbelievably frustrating!

Well today is no different. I've been on the lookout for some pants - other than jeans. Maybe some like Little Miss Momma has on in this post. She tells me they're having 40% off and they were clearance - which means I need to head to my nearest Banana Republic outlet quickly. I can't seem to find the pair online, so I found a nice alternative and put an outfit together.

1. Here. 2. Here. 3. Here. 4. Here. 5. Here. 6. Here.

I think this outfit would be cute with a low messy side bun or an ultra chic top knot bun. I don't have long enough hair for either, but if I did - that's how I'd style my hair when wearing this outfit. That's just me though. What I love about this is that those pants are $24.50 - which is a screaming steal compared to the MEK's I bought last. The shoes are kind of 70's platform but I like em'! And of course you need a pop of color with some jewelry!

Here are some more cute finds:

Found here.

I love the texture of this skirt! I'm also dying to try a good a-line skirt like this too.

Found here.
Now why are these jeans so special? They're $10.50. Meaning if I try them on and they fit, they're mine. That's a deal where you wonder what's wrong with them. But then you remember they're $10 and if they fall apart, well you're only out $10.

Found here.
These cute heels call to me too. And because I can't get enough...

Found here.
They come in black too!

Well that's all for today. I'll still slowly be picking up things here and there for my upcoming vacation.

What are some of your finds?
